I agree his # should be retired. At the least. The rest... I'm not so sure. It's not like I have anything to do with it. Knock yourselves out. How could that hurt?

If they wouldn't name it for Pasolini, there is no reason to rename it for Marco.  Both of them were regional heroes and both well loved.  Paso was much further in his career too.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

That was what I thought when  I read it. It would make a nice tribute.

Its the larger than life characters that leave such an impression. Tall, lean 'n mean lookin', wild hair, mirror sunglasses and a devil may care attitude. Kind of iconic early seventies look. Jim Morrison, Billy Jack and Barry Sheene all rolled into one. One cool dude.

"Next Sunday during the Valencia GP, instead of there being a minute's silence to honour Marco, I would prefer that there was a minute of total chaos with all the engines of the bikes of MotoGP, Moto2 and 125 all on and roaring together," Gazzetto dello Sport quotes Paolo Simoncelli as saying during an interview on television programme Domenica Cinque.
